anterior tibial artery, posterior tibial artery, and peroneal artery
axillary artery, iliac artery, and subclavian artery

superficial femoral artery, deep femoral artery, and inguinal artery
Pulse palpation sites are locations where arteries are close to the skin's surface, allowing for easy detection of the pulse. The carotid artery (neck), radial artery (wrist), brachial artery (inner elbow), and femoral artery (groin) are common and accessible sites for pulse palpation. Other options like the peroneal, subclavian, vertebral, and inguinal arteries are either deeper, less commonly used for routine pulse checks, or not standard palpation sites.
